International Glory So Sweet For Chapple-Hyam Peter Chapple-Hyam has declared Authorized's victory in the Juddmonte International Stakes at York as the highlight of his career.Chapple-Hyam has won the Derby twice among numerous other Group One wins but the circumstances surrounding the success meant a lot more was riding on the race.It had seemingly become popular to knock Derby winners as none had managed to win another race since High Chaparral in 2002, and Chapple-Hyam felt his star had to prove himself all over again following his defeat in the Coral-Eclipse.'Epsom meant everything, but that was for me. Yesterday was for Authorized and I was so pleased for him,' said Chapple-Hyam.'It seems that in this country people like to knock winners ? not just horses, but our top sportsman. People have knocked Authorized so he had to prove himself and he did.'When Rodrigo De Triano bounced back to win the International after getting beat in the St James's Palace it meant a lot. But maybe this means more to me as I've possibly been closer to this horse.'I've watched the race again and Frankie (Dettori) gave him a superb ride. He judged it to perfection. It's also good to see the three-year-olds winning against the older horses,' he told www.peterchapplehyam.co.uk.(C) PA Sport
